The Indians have signed 43rd round pick left-handed pitcher Geoff Davenport. According to Jim Callis of Baseball America he was signed for $100K.
Davenport was a middle reliever and weekend starter for the University of Arkansas and this past season went 3-1 with a 4.95 ERA in six appearances. In 20.0 innings he allowed 18 hits, 11 earned runs, 7 walks, and had 22 strikeouts. He would have gone a lot higher in the draft, but he injured his arm this past March and had Tommy John surgery.
